2007 BMW 745 *Bringing Sexy Back*

This BMW was in pretty bad shape, it has been through several car washes and the owner washes it with a brush. (not no more) This took about 9 hours in total, but looked awesome. I now maintain this vehicle on a bi weekly wash and monthly wax basis.

Process was :

Wash
Clay
OC / OP mix via orange pad @ 1200 - 1800 - 1200
Megs #9 via orange pad @ 1400
OPS via white pad PC @ speed 5
CG EZ Cream Glaze PC @ speed 5
Megs # 26 by hand x2

Before..

I don't have any full outside shots because the day I finished it it was pouring down rain outside. BUT I assure you this is almost 100% swirl free and well protected. I also did the interior but didn't snap any shots as it was really clean already.

Thanks,
DJ

Wow, great job, that car looks better then new now.

I bet on a big boat like that, it must have taken you forever to do the whole thing.

Nice work.

Sorry for the quality of the pictures, my camera is usually pretty good but I had no light inside the garage.

Wow, that was pretty bad before... whose thunderbird was that in one of the reflections?

Wow, some water etching, looks like some buffer trails too? Nice turnaround!

Your work was quite good. And did you wash it after you polished to get rid of the dust?

Oh and I'm pretty sure there is no such thing as an 2007 745Li, I believe they stopped producing them in 2006 and that is when the 750 took over

The befores were nasty! Good job on bringing it back to life.

Soldier- Yes, in one of the pics you can see I pulled it outside and washed it. Also your right, 2006 sorry.

Thanks everyone else!
